Mike, he is putrid. When I hear his voice, I am thinking he should be covering the war in Iraq or some other hard hitting news story...NOT football. His brother Greg is 100 times better.

I didn't hear one word of it & from the sounds of it, I didn't miss much. I agree, greg gumbel is a very good broadcaster, he & phil simms made a good team a few years ago.

Chris Collinsworth was no better. He must have the dullest tone of voice.

Bryant Gumbel has been away from the NFL for so long, why would anybody want him back?

I agree, I can't stand Collinsworth either. Guess it's a good thing I don't get NFL network.
